Coins with Image of Christ Discovered in Veliki Preslav
Standart daily, Rumyana Nikolova
Unique silver coins with the effigy of Christ sitting in a throne have been discovered in Veliki Preslav - the second capital of the First Bulgarian Kingdom.
The archaeological team came across 50 ancient Venetian and Serbian coins dating back to 13th-14th century. Inscriptions in Greek and Latin reading "dux" (chief) and "rex" (king) are inscribed next to Christ's image. The reverse of the coin is decorated with the effigies of two saints, in which experts recognize St. Silvester and St. Stefan.
The archaeologists have found the lead ruler's seal of King Petar (927-967), the son of Simeon the Great (893-927). The excavations continue in the ancient town of Missionis near the town of Targovishte.
